Gig Harbor

A lot of people have only heard of Gig Harbor because of Galloping Gerti, but most Puget Sound residents know Gig Harbor for its incredible views, rich maritime heritage, and dining and art scene. Gig Harbor earned the nickname The Maritime City for a good reason. We know that Native Americans fished here because the harbor was safe and calm. Some of the first industry here was boat building and commercial fishing. Today boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, canoeing, fishing, and whale watching can all be enjoyed just off our docks. During the summer, boaters and kayakers take in summer concerts in the park right from the water. Gig Harbor has a good sense of a small town feel combined with more cosmopolitan features. We have some of the best shopping on the West Sound and a unique blend of restaurants and bars. If you're craving a night in the city though, Seattle and Tacoma are either a drive or a ferry ride away. But what really sets Gig Harbor apart are the people. Everyone you encounter is smiling and friendly. It's like we all know how lucky we are to live in this beautiful town and we want to pass that good fortune along. If you'd like to learn more about Gig Harbor, let us know. We'd love the show here around and help you find your perfect home.

Tacoma

Tacoma is a city on the rise. A revitalized downtown, gorgeous views of Mt. Rainier and Puget Sound, and easy access to both Seattle and Olympia—as well as the West Sound—have put this historic city in the spotlight as one of the Pacific Northwest’s best places to call home. The city sits on Commencement Bay, which is home to the Port of Tacoma, the largest port in Washington State. Tacoma takes advantage of the water that’s so nearby in our parks, including Point Defiance. Within the park, you can see historic reenactments at Fort Nisqually, rent the Pagoda for special occasions, or walk along the water at Owen Beach. The Ruston Way waterfront along Commencement Bay is one of the loveliest walks in the city, complete with restaurants and other businesses to take in along the way. Tacoma has a thriving arts scene as well. Downtown’s revitalization really got started with the Washington State History Museum, followed by the Museum of Glass, featuring works from Tacoma’s native son, Dale Chihuly. In fact, our fair city is home to the State’s biggest concentration of arts and history museums. While you’re perusing the museums, be sure to see the sights along the Thea Foss Waterway, a renovated urban waterfront named for the founder of Foss Maritime and the woman Tugboat Annie was based on. Whether you come for the parks, the museums, the unique neighborhoods or the best views of Mt. Rainier in the world, Tacoma will welcome you with open arms and charm you with its many delights. If you’d like to learn more about Tacoma, let us know. We’d love to show you around and help you find your perfect home.
